A former state probation officer charged with having sexual contact with a probationer now faces a civil lawsuit in federal court.

Daryell Smith, 63, of Ashland City, was indicted in June after a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation probe. Authorities said Smith had sexual contact with a woman under his supervision - a charge detailed in the victim's 14-page federal complaint filed last week in U.S. District Court in Nashville.
